Is the plural prefix always os- or does it have variations? For
example, in my Uatakassí, genders 1-3 plurals involve gemination, for
example: singular n-lakús, plural nal-lakús-i (man/men), na-tabí,
nat-tabí-i (boy/boys). Yep, redundant plural-marking, one of my
personal favorite features of Uatakassí.
